Oh. Well, I think that brownies eaten in good company taste significantly better than those eaten alone.
And to answer Lauren's question:
Nope, I didn't. I got a car!

Ah, now — what we've actually done is stopped at 100 four times, 101 four times, and been cut marginally short the once. It doesn't bother me especially, no — I just think 1,500 is a neater number to finish on.

Umm...it's uneven. One really interesting mystery, several OK ones, a couple of really really boring ones, and some insane pointless over-the-top Catherine drama. All-in-all, I would give it a B-. Next week looks really good though.
Errr...um...do kids today even know who the Muppet Babies and ALF are? I mean, those are all 80's shows. Except Bugs Bunny, but all kids see now is the ba$tardized modernized version.
I did not know that The Birds II was an Alan Smithee film. Or Dune.
That it is, but I'm not sure that everything in that article is true (then again, this is Ed Wood we're talking about). If you're interested in really bad movies, check out "Manos: Hands of Fate." There is considerable debate over which one of those two movies is the worst ever made. Personally, "The Creeping Terror" gets my vote. The terror does indeed creep: in fact, it creeps so slowly that the "victims" have to pretty much crawl up into it to be eaten. Ah, bad movies...just like bad fanfic. Horrifying but fascinating.
That's good...college is awful when you have to live with jerks.
I seem to remember Mr. 88Keys saying his books ran about $400. Thankfully the university I went to let us rent them instead of having to buy (though I did buy a few).
I don't know why, but that cracks me up. Didn't you say you liked "Diagnosis: Murder" as well? You must have a thing for old men in long coats. I was a Perry Mason fan, myself.
I'm trying to, I really am...have most of tonight's on tape so I can see if it's worth sticking with.
Went to an interesting wedding this weekend. It was pretty disorganized, but turned out pretty well considering. Thought you all might like to see some pictures.
Mr. 88Keys and friends in kilts:
They've got a little Captain in them:
The happy couple (sorry it's kinda blurry):
Mr. 88Keys also ran a half marathon Sunday. He finished in 1 hour 38 minutes, and shaved about 4 minutes off his time from last year. Not to brag or anything. ;D

Why did Arested Development get cancelled? Because people are idiots.

At the very least they'd know of Alf, because of Family Guy and the Simpsons. Most younger kids don't even know Mighty Max, Captain Planet, Widget, McGuyver, Freakazoid, Animaniacs, Pinky and the Brain, Darkwing Duck, Ducktales, Talespin Chip 'n' Dale...

I don't know why, but that cracks me up. Didn't you say you liked "Diagnosis: Murder" as well? I don't know about Hail, but I really like Diagnosis Murder. I like Murder, She Wrote, as well. I've stated my theory that it was in fact Jessica Fletcher who was killing those people several times before. I'm glad you're enjoying university, Hail.

That whole list made me happy. Except Widget. Which one is Mr 88Keys? I'm writing a story about a boy who's brain was hooked up to a video game to play. Seriously.

OMG! My newspaper report is in for tomorrow and I cant find the school documents on my schools site! EDIT: Few, got it. Not much use though.
Right. I have just bodged my Newspaper report (just like a real reporter ) but I need help with the sub title. The story is basicly about the good exam results for our school (GCSEs above national average and SATs Maths are best ever) The head line is 'WE'RE TOP AT TESTS' (rubbish I know, you think of soemthing better). I have the sub title as 'Exam results are great'. Should i change the word 'great' to for a better word like 'Brill' or should I include more info or what? i need help. Its not right.
Here are some non-BBC Doctor who tie-in sites. But I dont understad some of them. Cybus Corporation www.cybuscorporation.com/ - the website for the Cybus Corporation. The corporation plays a major role in the 2006 series' two-part story featuring the Cybermen. The password for the "restricted files" area is "delete" (the old password was "nemesis"). To access the site, which now displays a "This page is suspended by order of the Torchwood Institute" message, the password "doomsday" has to be entered.Where do you eneter the password? Torchwood websites There are a number of fan-created Torchwood websites, including www.torchwoodinstitute.org and www.torchwoodinstitute.co.uk.Has anyone ever seen a user or pass that might accses this or is there non? Also is the second one just a picture?

IT'S MY BIRTHDAY!!Well, you can watch the reruns on nbc.com. There's also a comic book for each episode too. Heroes is really good. ;D Although that Nikki girl and her alter ego freak me out a lot.
